This past weekend was my daughter, Olivia’s, first dance recital. It was a big deal. I didn’t even realize how big of a deal it was until I re-read the instructions from the dance studio a few days prior to our first rehearsal. Every thing was planned down to the [...]

House Rules

I can’t stand it when people tell me that girls are easier than boys. What? Are you joking? Not that I have any experience raising boys to compare it to, but they can’t be serious. “How can this be? Have you met my girls?” I want to ask them. Then [...]

Apocalyptic

Let’s just say re-entry isn’t a beach. We just got home from our trip late Tuesday night and what a wonderful trip it was. We spent five days in Oahu, at a beautiful resort. We swam, ate wonderful, leisurely meals, had fulfilling adult conversation, I read a book cover-to-cover that [...]

Moms Away!

My Kids Aren’t Starving

I love witnessing the changes in my children as we get together with family to celebrate special occasions and holidays. It is Passover, and last year during Passover I could not wait to get out of my mother-in-law’s house and leave the Seder. I was anxious and I made us [...]

“The Plane Boss! The Plane!”

Just a quick update to inform you all that I did manage to turn our little red wagon into an airplane for Butter & Eggs Day Parade. I got so carried away that I also turned one of our push cars into an even littler airplane for Rocky [...]

Marathon Mom

Ever have one of those days when you can’t believe how much you managed to pack in? I have those days often. When I have a day like that I usually go over it in my head at night and think about what might have been okay to wait on. [...]

I’ll Complain if I Want To

I’ve been reading a little bit of online criticism towards mommy bloggers for being so negative about parenting in their blogs. I could feel the defensiveness well up inside of me as I thought to myself, “It’s my blog, and I’ll complain if I want to”. Personally, I love to [...]
